Hi G

There is a marriage for a William Henderson in 1844  to a Sarah Forster

9  November 1844 Hexham Northumberland
Sarah Forster has her father down as John Forster

ricky

Thats strange, I have them in St Helens Lancashire in 1841 age 38 info from ancestry trees says Sarahs father was Robert and Williams was Cuthbert. Cant be the right lot can it?

Thanks everyone for quick replies

I am looking for a mariage between William Henderson and Sarah Forster  C1823
They where both born in 1803 in Lemington and Newburn. William was a glassmaker.
They moved to Warrington Lancashire before the 1841 census and all children born there, the first,Cuthbert in 1828.

Thanks in advance

I'm having real difficulty interpreting the last line of my grandfather's brother's naval record (see attached jpeg) - would be most grateful for some help...

Last entry for a ship name is v. hard to read (looks like Jot, but there aren't any ships I can find with anything near that name), and under the "If discharged, where and for what reason" column it looks like it says Snod, Polynesia.  Seems like something unusual happened, as the record ends 4 years into a 12 year enlistment, but I can't work out what.  FYI, a horizontal line was drawn beneath the last entry and another person's naval record was begun underneath (17 years later!).

Thanks!

HI
I think the discharge cause is Polyuria as in large volumes of urine and increased frequency as in Diabetes or prosrate problem. As for the name of ship could it begin with a Y and not J.
Hope this helps.

Hi Andycand,
 
Im actually getting the birth year from her marriage cert which states shes age 19 in Aug 1875,living in Baldwin street still.
She could have been born elswhere I suppose as it seems her father was born in Cheshire,I think<but Im just going by what evidence I have.Ive tried the St Helens angle but it doesnt seem to fit.

This woman is something of a mystery,the family story goes that one day when her 2 children where toddlers she upped and left them in the bath and disappeared, talk about brick wall.

Thanks everyone for your input.

I just read that Wigan History Shop has microfiche records for Wigan parish or All Saints Church,

If anyone is using these records in the next week I would really appreciate a look up.

For the baptism of Alice Burrows b1856 father Samuel ?mother Alice nee Smith?
